The fifth annual Twin Cities Burger Battle returns to St. Paul at Harriet Island on May 19.

The event has been named the "Best Food Event/Dinner Event" in Minnesota by Growler Magazine, and this year the event will feature 24 Twin Cities' restaurants facing off to win the Burger Battle Championship.

Attendees will also receive one token to vote for the People's Choice award. A panel of chef and celebrity judges will cast votes for the Judge's Choice.

"We've seen simple burgers with not too many toppings, and cooked just right win, but we've also had some very creative ones win as well," said Jim Buron, the founder of Burger Battle.

Last year Casper and Runyon's Nook took home the People's Choice, while McKinney Roe won the Judge's Choice.

Buron said that tends to lead to a more critical eye for Judge's Choice, while the People's Choice winners tend to be "creative" choices because "guests are there just to have fun."
